Yay, RFK Jr! The other day someone was dissing him on a Substack, about how he has done this and that in his past, all the women he’s been with, blah, blah, blah. And I wrote “You don’t have to marry him. You just have to support him while he saves the health of this country.”

I would diss him for not being able to read a scientific study: https://thescamdoctor.substack.com/p/how-to-cherry-pick-data-to-scam-people?r=6hgshq

All you 'need' is hamburger and tallow. Go for it. Carnivore month is right now. :)

What do you do with tallow? I've never seen it in a store.

One of the ways it is used is to eat it like you would butter, as a healthy fat. It has many uses even in skin creams and so on. I like to eat raw suet but tallow is good too, especially with my ribeyes.

As much as you're helping me get future patients with this advice...maybe don't.

I agree with much of what you say, but as an MD you seem to have a blind spot when it comes to the likely risk and benefits of vaccines. Sadly the medical establishment exaggerates their benefits and downplays their risks. This has become most apparent with the very questionable mRNA shots for COVID. As far as I can determine those shots most likely do more harm than benefit. So on mRNA "vaccines" RFK, Jr. appears closer to what is likely true than you are IMO. Am I wrong?

It's not back if you can't afford it. The recommendations always emphasized mostly whole foods, but politicians do apmost nothing to help the population have access to whole foods.

On this topic I suspect you and I may agree more than on RFK's rather anti-science cherry picked nonsense on beef tallow and full fat dairy products being healthy. Nutrition 101 says foods high in saturated fats and/or cholesterol promote dyslipidemia, inflammation, atherosclerosis, and over the long term are the single greatest risk factor for dying from a heart attack. Am I wrong?

Man are you ever behind. By a decade at least.

Really? I have read and critically analyzed a few hundred thousand articles on diet, health and nutriiton and did my doctoral dissertation at Rutgers University on the impact of different amounts of cholesterol and different amount and types of fat on blood lipids so I suspect I might actually not be the one who is oblivious to what the scientific evidence suggests is almost certainly true about diet, blood lipids, atherosclerosis and heart disease. Perhaps you could provide us with some credible research that proves I am the one who is not grasping reality here?

What a full year 2025 was. Kudos to MAHA Action and all the hard work that was done!

Grateful for the reduced childhood schedule. Does that mean anything outside of the schedule is open to liability? If states and doctors and still give what's not recommended will they be liable?

Does the 1986 act get tweaked?

not liking the new food pyramid. I think meat and fats should be at the bottom.

I live a plant-based diet and it's amazing the recipes you can make with legumes for protein and cashews can make a great soft cheese.

An awesome recipe book is from chronically ill to vibrantly well by Judy de Lorenzo. She has a great website: a life well planted.

To each their own, Kathy. I'm 79, and have thrived all my life on the foods of the new food pyramid. I'm in good health, and take no meds.

I’m agreeing with you about the food pyramid and just wrote my own reply to the post. Although I am a localvore not a vegan, I believe we should be eating local seasonal food and that things like cashews are treats not basic protein sources.

There is protein in fruits and vegetables. That's why giraffes and gorillas, etc. survive. Also legumes are Very filling and satisfying. Much better for people and the environment. The meat industry is extremely cruel to animals.

Absolutley stellar breakdown of the week. The Section 453 defeat is honestly the most underreported win here because it shows direct citizen pressure can actually change policy outcomes before they become law. Most advocacy groups struggle for years to undo bad legislation, but blocking preemptive legal immunity for chemical manufactuers before it even passed? That's a different level of organizing. I've worked in regulatory spaces and seeing months of petitioning translate to real congressional action like that is genuinely rare.

I’m not happy with your reversed pyramid, I think you’ve been influenced by the meat and dairy industry, not by true understanding of nutrition and body metabolism. Also the need for frugality from most of the world, eliminates those large pictures of steaks and things you’ve put at the top. It’s off putting. People can afford to have beans and rice or other whole grain, for a frugal, good quality, protein and balanced carbohydrate meal.

Shame on you!

Oh shut it Annie. The new food pyramid is CORRECT. Your arguments are ridiculous.
